Allergies are up. My pollen nemesis is in full bloom, some small weed with nasty yellow flowers. Sneezing, blowing nose a lot, and now itching of the eyes. Have medicated eye drops which should handle the itching.

Pleasant and partly sunny here on the West Coast today, but tomorrow starts a spate of rain until maybe Wednesday. Just had a similar rain barrage about a week or so ago. No big deal here, more rain to go in the inadequate number of reservoirs we have here. Could save easily twice as much had there been more/bigger places to store it.

Went to the commissary this morning, as usual. Saw a female doing her grocery shopping, or rather the guy she was with was doing the shopping. She was strutting her stuff, all hoe'd out. Wearing boots that came up over her knees, short skirt, top with a leather jacket. The hoe's top revealed an ample chest, tattooed. What the fuck. At the commissary (military grocery store), at a time of day when most everyone else is older or parents with little kids. Dunno...this being a three-day weekend, tourists in town, could be that she's going to turn some tricks, since she looks like a low-class hoe, to supplement military pay.

I read the longer you're out the worse it is on your body and mind, my friend seemed drunk af when she was under for 2 hours.

I also read a horrifying thing, doctors aren't sure that we are actually "asleep" when we are put to sleep. They said we might actually be awake the whole time and see/feel everything, but we forget about it once we wake up. That's creepy to think about :)

Was out 36 hours for the open-heart surgery. Was so damned glad to be alive that the rush mitigated any residual lethargy. Wasn't out that long for either of the first two spinal surgeries, outpatient procedures. Was out several hours for the spinal fusion surgery, inpatient. Was so grateful to be free of sciatica agony; the feeling just so incredibly mellow.

I normally say something weird when being put to sleep. When the fentanyl hits the IV, have maybe a minute to pontificate before the lights go out. Am sure those doing the surgeries could write a book of the things they have heard.

My loon next-door neighbor is being fucking weird again. She didn't peer in through my window or dance around to get my attention, then bitch at me about street lights and radio waves and the NWO or some shit.

She did however stalk the streets outside like a homeless cat and screamed at me when I opened my door to the main hallway to take out the trash like I was about to mug her.

Which is curious because the police have been around our apartment numerous times, specifically to question her about something or another.

Bitch also keeps trying to connect her phone to my TV. Stop doing that, you're interrupting my Top Gear marathon.

Saw the orthopaedic surgeon today for my knee (torn cartilage, fractures and torn meniscus) and like I knew, having surgery next month. He's doing arthroscopy so it'll be outpatient. I'll be able to full weight-bear on the day of surgery, so that's good. Six to eight weeks of recovery. Not looking forward to surgery but I'll be glad not to be in pain all the time.

I saw the photo of the memorial setup for my relative. For some reason, seeing that photo of him happily smiling just made it all hit hard that he's really gone. I don't know why it feels like this now and it didn't with the relatives I lost last year.

In good news, I talked to my boss and she's very happy with the idea of getting rid of me. She seemed very happy when I told her I wanted to look at other teams/roles.
And to make things better, I have a couple interviews lined up for next week. I can't make it to my relative's funeral because of them, but my family were understanding. Truthfully, I don't want to go anyway, even though I should, because I'm afraid I'm going to lose it if it all feels too real.

The shitposter in me wants to say you should start trying to out-conspiracy her and start talking about the globalists, etc, but I feel like that might actually just make things worse.

Lost an old friend tonight. My late bestie’s brother. Almost the whole family has died since 2019, all for completely different reasons. I don’t know why none of them can make old bones. It’s like some Kennedy curse.

I have one feel good story. One of the outdoor cats - the one that we thought was a feral jerk - has been leaving us mice outside every morning this past week. He’s trying his best to communicate with us, in his own way. Very sweet of him.

Catching up on MATI so I can actually laugh.

It's via Bluetooth. I should see if I can turn that off l. She thankfully does not know my wifi password or network name given the 17 other people living here.

She did leave notes on her door, warning people not to trust the black. Whether she meant people or the color of the night or fucking ninjas remain to be be seen..

I gotta go deeper than the lizard people.

Kidding aside, the woman freaks me out. Not that she's threatening but she's very mentally unwell, living on her own, wanted by the cops in some fashion, and possibly an addict judging from the bottles she leaves outside her door.

In better news, I'm recovering from the surgery and the IV hand fuckery so that's nice. Can bend my wrist now fully.

Doing good after somehow fucking up my way into a much better teaching gig.

Basically I took an elementary position from hell: over stuffed classrooms, shit admin management, lots of last min tacted on responsibilities, bitter coworkers who hate each other, students with behavioral problems not being delt with appropriately, picky parents, ect. I was drowning and unable to keep up with the schools ludicrous demands and was having serious beef with some coworkers. The admins wanted me out and decided to offer me a position at their understaffed kindergarten instead.

The kindi has its own problems but it's night and day how much better it is. For only a very small pay cut (but still making way above the average for kindi) I now have: 1 class of 15 students instead of 6 classes of 30+, a lot less paperwork, a surprisingly well behaved class, chill coworkers, less hours, opportunities to teach outside, and a co-teacher that is actually easy to work with.

I miss my elementary students, but I am way happier here.

Didnt want to read all the group chat messages so I asked my buddy for a good chicken tenders air fryer recipe and it landed right under my other friend announcing his beloved childhood dog had died.
